Operations Nation is a community-powered knowledge hub for operations leaders.
We’re working together with a community of operations professionals to shine a light on the people, tools, and processes that help businesses survive, grow, and thrive, while at the same time building many different forms of resources that help our peers grow and develop in their roles.
We’re hosting the first-ever International Ops Festival.

Sign up for Operations Nation’s Aspiring COO Course 🎓
We’re passionate about equipping the next generation of startup COOs with the tools they need not only to survive but thrive in their roles. We’ve designed a course to help operations leaders build up their skills and confidence to land the difficult-to-define role of a startup COO role and succeed in it. 🚀
We ran our first two cohorts this year and are launching the next cohort in September 2023.
Read our Survival Guide for COOs 📚
We’re on a mission to share with you the world’s first-ever book for startup COOs, by startup COOs. There are hundreds of books and articles written for CEOs, but very few designed for the second-in-command - so after many years of dreaming about this very book, we’re finally creating it.
Click the link below to link the first three published chapters, and find out how you can contribute to the rest of the book.
Subscribe to our Newsletter 📢
We’ll send you regular updates about what Operations Nation is up to, including upcoming events, ops-related resources, and our other projects and initiatives you can get involved with. ✨
We absolutely hate spam and overflowing inboxes (permanently fighting for that beautiful inbox zero) so we promise that we won’t be sending you more than 4 emails per month (and probably less than that, really). Ops people like efficiency, so we prefer to keep our newsletters packed with information. 🤓
Follow us on LinkedIn 📱
If you’d like to know a little more: we post frequently on social media and share all sorts of news and interesting articles from our own feeds, along with some behind-the-scenes details about how we’re building our company with a wONderful team of creatives and a community of ops people. 🙌
We’re building a community to support you on your ops journey.
